Men Simulating Childbirth, Always a Bad Idea
WARNING: THIS POST MAY CONTAIN DISTURBING FOOLISHNESS AND GROWN MAN MOANING Video footage of women in labor can be unsettling or disturbing to some, the same is true of footage of two cocky, Dutch guys trying to experience the miracle of childbirth by having electrodes strapped to their abs and simulating two hours […]
How Not To Be A Dad?
So, I found this over the weekend. I don’t want to color your opinion of it beforehand, so I’ll just let you watch and then we can chat… Of course, we don’t actually know this man and the whole story to his life, so making broad generalizations about him is petty. But I would like […]

To Poop or Not to Poop
As a parent, you’d think my main responsibility would be taking care of my child. But did you know it’s also my job to scare the shit out of non-parents? Before I joined the sperm infection club, so many parents came at me with invasive questions about having kids and war stories from the baby […]
The Reaction We All Want
Going back to work has been really strange for me. I wrote about that here for Buzzfeed last week. I come home around 7-9pm each night, which, I know, is normal for most of us. But for me, having been around SO much… it’s a whole different deal. I’m dog tired. I’m overwhelmed. Life has […]
How Do We Do It?
People often ask us about our creative process. Questions like: “Are you as annoying in real life as you are in person?” “Do you involve hand-to-hand combat in your decision-making?” “Who really writes this stuff?” Well, the answer to all of those questions is, ultimately, “42” and “sometimes.” But, for the first time ever, we’re […]
50 Most Traumatizing Movie Moments in Kids’ Films

Baby Jogger Strollers, Journal #4: Playground Paparazzi
One of the big attractions for tourists coming to Los Angeles is decidedly the celebrity culture. I’ve been a personal assistant and I’ve been in the line of fire of those pesky, camera-wielding gnats known as paparazzi. I’ve seen it all, man. Today, I’m talking about celebrity-watching and how to go about it FOR REAL. […]
Can’t Calm Them, Join Them
We’ve all (the royal WE) been there. Your kid is screaming bloody murder and they just seem like they need a little compassion, a gentle caress or a calm voice. Do we cave? Do we succumb to their emotional demands? Well, this father did and it proved to all of us doubters that sometimes things […]
Office Spaced
This is my last video, and as such, I thought we should go out with a… suit. My birthday suit, perhaps? I recently got a new job that has me, get this, showering and shaving. All the time. Weird, right? While I don’t have to wear a suit on the regular, I occasionally need to […]
